I am leaning towards the actuator. This morning when I came out everything worked. Also, when I got to work everything worked. It is something intermittent.

The last few days I have been having weird issues with my door locks. I am wondering if anyone has run into this and if so how to fix it. When using the key fob, I can click the unlock and get the beep and hear unlocks. If I follow right how with a lock, I get no beep and all doors lock...

Unfortunately I haven't had time to do any offroading and I can't think of any curbs I kissed. I guess it could be some settling. It is running against the wheel liner at the front with the driverside turned all the way to driver (inside of the wheel hits the liner). I honestly don't know...

So I noticed a new tire rub on my left front tire. I have had the same tire, suspension and alignment for 6 months now with no rubs. A week ago, I noticed the rub and now it does it every time I am at lock all the way to the left. The alignment still seem to be good. I can left go on the...

I am leaning towards just replacing with new OEM. I am busy with too many project and my time is worth more then the cost difference of having to do it again if it doesn't work out. Can someone point me to a link where I can get the part numbers I need?

I found a lot of posts on CV Axles and the general consensus seem to be get the OEM replacements if you do any sort of offroading. With that in mind, I am looking at OEM replacements. However, I didn't see a single post talking about a v8. I have an 05 sport with a V8 4wd. I am looking to...

Welp, I have some good new and some bad news. The bad new is I am an idiot. The good new is yesterday while messing with it I noticed that the harmonic balancer was loose and causing my belt to pull forward on the tensioner. After I tightened that down, problem solved. I didn't even think to...

It is really hard to see, but here is my tensioner with the pulled on it. Keep in mind it is missing a rub toward the engine. You will notice the flat side of the belt which goes from the ac to the idler above where the tensioner is. At the tensioner the belt is about a rib and a half further...

So you think everything is fine but it wasn't lined up? I looked at it while it was running and everything looked right. Also it ran for about 40 miles before the rib got stripped. Does your belt look slightly forward on the tensioner? Can you take a pic?

OK, so I had a friend that is a moble mechanic come out yesterday since I was tied up with work and had to do something last night. I ordered a new tensioner and belt from o'reilly's. This tensioner came with another new pulley and I figured I couldn't return the one I bought from autozone on...

OK, so I have an 05 with a v8. Last Friday, I noticed a loud noise coming from the belt. Instantly I though pulley replacement. Saturday I replaced both the idler and tensioner pulleys. However after completing it, I noticed the tensioner pulley didn't seem to line up right (it was a little...

I have been reading through all of the posts on people upgrading to scion radios, but all seem to mention it doesn't work with the stock amp. Are there any options out there that won't take all of the speakers being rewired?

I have stock 05 sport shocks and springs if anyone is looking for some that don't leak. I just upgraded my suspension. I threw out all of the lines because I bent the crap out of them when pulling everything out.

I mounted my light bar yesterday and that seems to have resolved my vibration problem. However, my vibration problems seems to have shook loose a lot of things in the sunroof because I have several new rattles now. I am going to look into greasing things this weekend to see if that fixes...

On my way home from work I opened up my sunroof and sure enough, the front bar was shacking like crazy. I didn't get a chance to install my light bar last night, but I am hopeful that will resolve my problem. i will keep everyone updated.
